Can anyone give a recap of JB's presser?
I would agree if it was against anybody but Pitt. Pitt always brings out the ugly.All I know is that the next game isn't for a week. That's a long time for this loss to stick in their craw. It also gives JB a LOT of coaching points to emphasize this week.
I expect us to play much better at Pitt.
Agreed. It always amazes me how successful Dixon has been coaching such an awful style. But, that being said, I don't see this team losing two in a row. Pitt is decent, but not great. (Although, road games in this league are tough - how's that for equivocating? )I would agree if it was against anybody but Pitt. Pitt always brings out the ugly.
Yea but I just can't see losing to 2 mediocre to avg teams in a row.I would agree if it was against anybody but Pitt. Pitt always brings out the ugly.
I was just going to post the same thing. Not only is a week a long time for the team to think about this, but what about it's fans. This forum is going to be unbearable.:bang:All I know is that the next game isn't for a week. That's a long time for this loss to stick in their craw.

Agreed. Thankfully it seems Steven Adams is almost as underwhelming as Coleman compared to their preseason hype.Yea but I just can't see losing to 2 mediocre to avg teams in a row.
I could see that coming.Agreed. Thankfully it seems Steven Adams is almost as underwhelming as Coleman compared to their preseason hype.
Except that Adams actually plays.Agreed. Thankfully it seems Steven Adams is almost as underwhelming as Coleman compared to their preseason hype.
I was checking out his stats earlier and he plays 8 minutes more per game (22 vs 14) and his stats are really not noticeably different. Needless to say, neither one will be declaring for the NBA this off season.Except that Adams actually plays.
Yes there were several questions about the last 13 seconds of regulation. Summary that they played it the way it played out.Really? No questions about the last three minutes? Wow.
I think you are confusing be ready with being draftable. That Adams looks to be a real 7'. And if the people he trusts predict a first round selection for him, he may just try it. It is the problem with bigs these days, as soon as they get anywhere near ready it is possible they bolt on potential (see Fab).I was checking out his stats earlier and he plays 8 minutes more per game (22 vs 14) and his stats are really not noticeably different.

Big difference between Sophomore Fab Melo and Freshman Adams but you are right, he is a legitimate 7 footer. I just can't see any NBA team drafting him this year unless there is someone with two or three first round picks that would take a chance on him.I think you are confusing be ready with being draftable.

except that is what SU is. How's that U of L win looking now? No good-great BE teams, just fair -good.Yea but I just can't see losing to 2 mediocre to avg teams in a row.
